The Dutch are too deep. Theres no outlet ball to release pressure for the Netherlands and so Holland are getting pressed!

Good work by the Poles though!

Poland's Coach is a dapper gentleman. That is a nice suit.

I mean just on the basis of Štruklji vs. Stegte Sild we should all be cheering for Slovenia.

Still weird that Danish goalie Schmeichel jr. looks so much like his father, while playing the same position.

Feels like some sort of a time glitch.

Slovenia! Bad bit of luck for the Danes on the deflection, but they've been pressing.

I pretty much called that this was going to be back-and-forth and fun!

I think Slovenia has the superior cuisine though.

So many missed chances though. It's the lowest scoring of the 6 games so far.

First game under 2.5 so Girly loses

certainly expected more from Denmark ... that was pretty underwhelming. Slovenia were poor in the first half, but turned it up in the second. Felt like they were closer to the win than Denmark.

Thats pretty much what I was expecting. They've got some talent, but it was going to go back and forth.

Like...who did Denmark think was going to score for them other than Eriksen? Hojjund?

Eriksen is at least talented but also very much on the wrong side of his Prime.

Disappointing result for the Danes. Feels like we are in a down period for Danish soccer right now.

Jonas Wind also had 11 goals and 7 assists in Germany. That's not nothing.

on paper, it's a decent team. Certainly more talent than Slovenia.

Harry Kane has said the failure to end his wait for a trophy at Bayern Munich is driving him on to lead England to Euro 2024 glory.

The Three Lions begin their Group C campaign against Serbia in Gelsenkirchen on Sunday with Kane set to start as Gareth Southgate's side attempt to win the country's first silverware in the men's game since 1966.

I find this narrative kind of funny. You can classify it as a 'Bayern Failure' if you want, but that is ignorant of the fact that Leverkusen never lost a single game in the Bundesliga.

Even if Bayern had taken 2 games off of Leverkusen it wouldn't have been enough. Sometimes you just get beat.
